○ Where Sophos Firewall is in use, manage firewall policies, IPS, and secure remote access.

Network, Firewall & Wi-Fi:

○ Design, configure, and maintain firewalls, VLAN segmentation, VPN, and secure remote access.

○ Administer enterprise Wi-Fi and wired networks (switches, access points), including

RADIUS-backed authentication.

○ Manage LAN / WAN connectivity, ISP relationships, and network performance and uptime.

○ Implement network monitoring, intrusion detection, and centralized logging.

Hardware, Software & Asset Management:

○ Own the full hardware lifecycle — procurement, provisioning / imaging, maintenance, repair, and

decommissioning.

○ Support a mixed fleet of macOS, Windows, and Android devices, including high-performance workstations and XR / VR hardware used by our creative and engineering teams.

○ Maintain an accurate hardware and software inventory and asset register.

○ Manage software deployment, patch management, and license compliance.

Security, Risk & Compliance — GDPR · SOC 2 · ISO 27001:

○ Operate and continuously improve the company's Information Security Management System

(ISMS).

○ Own day-to-day compliance for GDPR, SOC 2 (Type II), and ISO/IEC 27001 — including control

implementation, evidence collection, and continuous monitoring.

○ Conduct risk assessments, internal audits, periodic access reviews, and vendor security / DPA

assessments.

○ Serve as a primary point of contact during external audits and customer security reviews.

budget.

○ Maintain documentation, runbooks, and standard operating procedures.

● Google Workspace (GWS) — deep admin-console experience including security, DLP , and Vault.

● Sophos — hands-on endpoint / XDR administration and threat response.

● Networking — firewall configuration, Wi-Fi, VLANs, VPN, LAN / WAN, and RADIUS / LDAP fundamentals.

● GDPR, SOC 2 & ISO 27001 — hands-on — you have personally taken an organization through at least one

full audit / certification cycle and know the controls, evidence, and auditor expectations inside out.

Cross-platform support — proven troubleshooting across macOS, Windows, and Android in a 24x7, multi-location environment.

System security — solid grasp of IDS / IPS, endpoint hardening, encryption, and backup / recovery.

Education — B.Sc. / B.Tech in Information Technology, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
